    about Calavry Dock on deal page, possibly a better deal

    I may have a better deal than the one from the deal page... "Awesome! Buy.com - Cavalry SATA 2-Bay USB 2.0 Dock for $34.99 Shipped Free!" http://www.buy.com/prod/cavalry-sata...209842225.html and it is...
    http://www.buy.com/prod/thermaltake-...207926142.html for $44.99 free shipping
    I would like opinions before I get it, I think it's a better deal because it's $5 more, also does 2.5" and 3.5" but is also faster ESATA. What it does not do is hold 2 drives. Please give opinions.

    Jeffbx Is it the fact that it's eSATA that you like? It only holds one drive though.

    I don't care about eSATA so much - but for work, we're constantly swapping & troubleshooting drives, so it's much easier to have something like this rather than messing around mounting them internally or putting them in an enclosure.

    For me the big draw is that it supports both 2.5 & 3.5" drives.

    I have one on order so I'll let you know how it looks when I get it.

    Please post your opinion when you get it. Also, if you didn'care about the eSATA so much, why didn't you get the Cavalry, it was $10 cheaper and can hold 2 drives.
    Here is the user manual for the eSATA drive http://www.thermaltakeusa.com/Upload...-Manual-v2.pdf
